emcli

A single command-line program that mediates all email access for an AI agent. The agent never holds your email password and never talks to the mail server directly — every read and send goes through emcli, which enforces the limits you configure (read-only/read-write, sender and recipient whitelists, subject filters). Even with faulty instructions, the agent can't read mail it isn't permitted to see or send mail to people it isn't permitted to contact.

Getting started

export EMCLI_KEY="$(head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64)"   # one-time: generate & save a key
emcli init                                                # create the DB, add your first account
emcli doctor                                              # confirm it connects and authenticates
